ing some vague institutional home to which
they contribute yearly almost as a matter
of habit. Others know it to be a worthy
object because it is on the Christian Asso-
ciation Budget: Only a remaining few,
who have been to Long Branch, have a
vivid picture of Rosic and Dominic romp-
ing in the waves, or Angelo Laborio
silently consuming the ice cream which was
the crowning glory of his first birthday
party.
This vacation home for slum children
which Bryn Mawr runs is situated at Long
Branch, New Jersey. Mrs. J. Roswell
Bates, who for long has co-operated with
Bryn Mawr in running Bates, has bought
the cottage which she hitherto rented. So
it is Bryn Mawr's responsibility, having
been given the cottage to make the sum-

THE Ni ws takes great pleasure in announcing the election of Delia Smith, 26,

man year.

SUMMER SCHOOL .OF 1924
TO HAVE ABLE STUDENTS
Alumnae in All Sections of the
Country Maintain Interest and
Support School
BENEFIT TO BE PLANNED
(Speciall+contributcd by Miss Hilda Smith,
director of the Hryn Mawr Summer
School for Women Workers in Industry.)
The selection of the new students for
the School at the meeting of the Admis-
sions Committee last week, makes the sum-
mer term seem very near. Although 120
students were chosen, it is the expectation
of the Committee that as in previous years,
at least fifteen of the candidates will have
to withdraw before the School actually
opens. The fact that each local committee
this year has emphasized the question of
preparatory classes for each applicant
should mean that the group of students this
summer will be able to make the change
from factory work t�t school classes' more
promptly and without the severe strain of
adjustment which has meant in the past a
delay in work and much nervous anxiety.
In order to. hasten this adjustment and
simplify if possible the very difficult prob-
lem of grouping the students for class
work and tutoring sections, the first week
of the school term this year will be re-
garded as a registration period. Although
class work will begin promptly as usual,
the various sections in each department
will discuss the same material during the
first week, so that at the end of this time
a final grouping of the students may be
made, on the basis of psychological tests,
silent reading tests, and personal interviews.
The curriculum this summer will include
as before, required courses in Economics,
and Englisll Composition, with clcctivcs in
History, Literature, Science and Music.
For second tear students, a course in I'sv-
chology and! work in more advanced eco-
omics wjU/bc offered. Fourteen'of these

the group hhjs summer, an encouraging
